football game. huh mark ibanez. they have perfect weather for it too. it'll be in the 50s. good looking forecast for the game in charlotte and just kind of a dry forecast really. there's rain on saturday but it's not going to be a lot. >> thank you, bill. >> okay. there were good, -- we are on the wrong script. just a second here. state health officials warn the public not to use two skin lightening creams that tested positive for high levels of mercury. one is called monsepa and the other geoli. people should stop using and see a doctor if they

experienced mercury exposure signs. the sharks they are very good. they want to be great. always competitive. they strive for dominance like tonight. well, makes you think it is all possible for them. even without logan couture. men in teal stopped the red wings. from joe thornton to joe pavelski. look at andrew dejard one man show. taking it off the board himself. risking a blazer pass. stewart shot on gold. joe pavelski is there to put it in. you have to see it on the replay. it is a 4-1 final. the sharks looking very dominant 4-1. should they go on to the super bowl and all that glory. it'll be a road to the championship for sure.

they will soon pack it up again. this time carolina, panthers haven't played in nearly two weeks so it's the old rested or rusted discussion. not that they have a choice. but the niners they have their own preference. >> i do believe of momentum when it comes to ending a regular season and moving ton the play offs. for the last two years we had the ball. in both games we started a little rusty. it hasn't really been too good to us. mentally we're able to fight and win those football games but i truly believe that this is what our football team needed. >> of course the space filler between nfl play off games, college hoops. plenty of it tonight. we'll show you what set off a celebration for santa clara tonight with the rest of the sports is great news for cal and santa clara. a little hint.

all right of course december bowled over with all the college football. now college hoop ready to take the floor. had one tonight. the little big game, same area santa clara. gales have dominated in recent years. last second role reversal. the fans pumped up. all came down to the final seconds. james walker with a wide open steven holt. pops the three and it looks like st. maries will win it

again by one. but santa clara rebounding to the freshman brownridge. he hit it he wanted that ball and he drilled it with .9 left. 23 for him. first time since february of 2009 santa clara defeat st. mary. cal dealing with 17th ranked oregon on that salvador dahli like floor. all about the freshman. 32 points he does it all inside and out. a little montage there of his activity. then in the final moments richard solomon had himself a game. 13 times cal has beaten oregon. a little bit of an anomaly there. the news was not good for stanford and the other pac12 game as they lose to oregon state. 81-72. two out of three local basketball winners. that's the sporting life for a

thursday night. >> all right, mark, thank you. thank you for choosing ktvu morning news. >> ktvu news starts at 4:30. we'll see you tomorrow morning. >> good night.

want some coffee? say yes. it's french press. i was doubtful, too, but i honestly can't see myself going back to drip. i'm so happy you don't live in a tough neighborhood anymore. we're so sorry for just dropping by like this. are you kidding me? i'll take any chance to spend time with this little princess. i love her little hair, her little toes. and she loves her grandmother. i don't love "grandmother." so, cam and i have been revising our will to specify who should take care of lily if, god forbid, something happened to us. god forbid. i said "god for--" so, we've been dropping by unannounced to, you know, casually assess our candidates. not all of our candidates. no, t-that's true. we did not drop by missour-ah. it's "missouri." no one from missouri would say "missour-ah." i'm so sorr-ah.
